The City Theatre
A professional theatrical scene was established in Zlín in 1946 and was located at the very beginning in the Small Scene in Štefánikova street. The City Theatre was called, in those days, the "Workers Theatre" and was among the first ones built shortly after WWII in the former Czechoslovakia. The construction was finished in 1967 according to a proposal by architects M. Řepa and F. Rozhon. The capacity of the theatre is some 800 spectators. The city theatre Zlín is presently considered as one of the best regional theatres in the Czech Republic. Besides its own repertoire, the theatre offers numerous performances by visiting theatrical groups, as well as operatic works. The theatre foyer is used by the State Gallery in Zlín. The city of Zlín traditionally organizes an International theatre festival "A get together Meeting" always at the beginning of May. During the Open House, the visitors may visit the theatre behind the scenes
